Notes[edit]
- Although the sword he is holding is supposed to be Eternity, mechanically he is probably just switching between special versions of Twilight and Sunrise with unique weapon skills, as his sword's appearance changes with his skillsets (whereas the player version of Eternity changes appearance based on the day/night cycle).
- Rather than using a Risen model, the Risen High Wizard appears to be a human wearing Orrian armor.
- A Glorious Chest spawns upon his defeat during the Defeat the Risen High Wizard and secure the Promenade of the Gods event.
